Constitutional Love

 

That ignorance frightens me.

A nation so insecure

that it denies Love.

Happiness is only conditional and

Justice is relative.

            Technically, we are the same if

the grit of words is abided-

To the leaders:

An intricate hierarchy starchly sits.

Equality is circumstantial

Advocacy makes a headway in

America

And Bush stains a pillow with cowardly

            tears.

A Catholic gringo mutters to a blissfully

or simply vulnerable infant on the train-

He would say ‘No’ coherently if insanity didn’t

seethe and wrathe in his brain.

Cries of Love fill anticipating minds

and a humorous glow supports a day.

An interview, a buck, but L O V E.

            How in any lifetime could such a

            Joyous thing be wrong?
